Liverpool are determined to secure Sadio Mane's services through the prime years of his career and beyond as they prepare to offer the forward a new deal.
The Reds hope a new deal will eradicate the threat of Real Madrid poaching the star during the summer window, after the Spanish giants made Mane a top target.
The forward is a pillar of Jurgen Klopp's world and European champion squad and the Reds want the new deal to ensure he remains in England to the end of his playing days, according to Football Insider.
Mane's current contract is up in 2023 when he will be 31-years-old, a deal the forward signed in November 2018, months before the Reds would win the Champions League and he would finish fourth in the Ballon d'Or vote.
The 2018-19 season saw the African footballer of the year burst out from team-mate Mohammed Salah's shadow after the Egyptian had dominated the headlines the previous year.
Mane even earned winner Lionel Messi's vote for the Ballon d'Or last time around, and former Southampton sensation has continued his form in the 2019-20 season by bagging 14 goals and providing nine assists amid the Reds's Premier League dominance.
